-------------------------------------------------------------
Are you calling Tika on a file or on an inputstream? If memory serves, PDFBox
is more efficient on a file. I know that zip-based parsers (docx, etc.) are
much more memory efficient when processing files vs streams.
{noformat}
Path p = Paths.get("my.pdf");
try (InputStream is = TikaInputStream.get(p)) {... {noformat}
Separately, I _think_ you can twiddle some of the memory configurations via
PDFParserConfig
([https://tika.apache.org/2.2.1/api/org/apache/tika/parser/pdf/PDFParserConfig.html#setMaxMainMemoryBytes-long-]).
